What dansco album are you working on?

[Schatzy]

Well last week I only had 1 dansco and I decided that I want to get more of them.

........so I bought 9 more albums to work on. I was cracking proofs sets like a crazy man!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

What dansco are you working on?

 

What dansco do you have complete?

[Bugmann1974]

Sounds like I am doing the same thing you are right now. Plus I am working on a 7070. *edit* I forgot that I am also working on Circ Large cents and Unc Morgan Dollar Danscos, I know my collection needs more focus.

 

Right now the only Danscos I have that are full are a circulated Peace dollar set and a Circulated Franklin half set. All of the rest of my sets are in Whitman folders/albums. Most of these will probably be transfered to Danscos at some point in the future.

[bsshog40]

I have 12 danscos as follows:

 

Lincolns - Complete from 1932 - date

Buffalos: incomplete

Jeffersons: Complete ( to date)

Roosevelts: incomplete

Washington qtr: incomplete

Statehood (no prfs): complete

Kennedys: incomplete

Eisenhower: incomplete

Susan B's: Missing 79 & 81 ty2 proofs

Sacagawea: complete (to date)

ASE's: complete (to date)

Prez dollars: complete (to date)

Yeah I thought it would be cool to have a full set from 1955-to present. Proof sets and mint sets just take up too much room!!

[James_OldeTowne]

My priorities in order are the Washington quarter set, the proof set run, the circulated Walker set, and then the toned type set.

 

I do have other album brands that I'm working on too!

[EZ_E]

As I recently shared, I'm working on a classic commem type set in original, circulated condition but just transferred them from a Dansco to a L of C album.

 

I have a complete, up to date set of modern commemorative silver dollar collection in Danscos.

 

I've sold most of the rest to pare down my collection to a more manageable form.

[jason888]

I was curious what the proof coins look like after a few years in the album? do they get hazey or cloudy or do they stay clear?

Working on Lincoln complete

1919 - s vdb (any suggestions?)

1922 "Plain"

 

All 1919-S Lincolns came with VDB in small letters on Linclons shoulder, unless it got filled with grease.

 

I have a Lincoln set in an Intercept Shield album except for the 1909-S VDB which is in an ANACS holder and the 1914-D in a PCGS holder. Oddly, it was the 1919-D that was the last coin that I added to complete the set. And I do not consider the 1922 "Plain" or the 1955 Doubled Die part of my complete set. I also quit trying to keep up with the memorials around ten years ago.

 

Other than that, the only album I have is an incomplete Dansco 7070.

I think that he meant 1909-S VBD.

I am not sure about other peoples but I have a Jefferson Dansco and the last time I put any coins into it was before 2000. None of my coins have any toning and the proofs look brand new still. I am not sure about the silver coins. I store my dansco in my dresser with some silica gel packets.

Most are stable but some acquired some haziness. I went through the set last year and dipped and carefully rinsed the coins that needed it to prevent any toning spots from eating into the skin. I was too late on one of them that had an apparent spittle mark that darkly toned and pitted the surface of a proof community service coin.

 

I found that the more of the clad and silver proofs in my set of state quarters in Danscos turned hazy than the dollar commems.

Oops

 

Yes I meant 1909 s VDB

Sorry about that

[RWB]

I’m working on the $4 Stella album, but it’s tough to find the extra pages for copper and aluminum pieces. The album also includes Metric and Goloid dollars, too.

 

 

PS: My album was made by "Darnsco."

 

[TomB]

7070. I've been known to dabble in type.

[rrantique]

I just have one I am working on a Dollar date set 1878-1935. Need 3 more.

[EZ_E]

That would be a fun set in all original, crusty circulated condition.

[bsshog40]

I want to start a 7070 one day. I think if I buy the Dansco it may motivate me more.

[Elbesaar]

 

Just finished a VG10-XF40 Barber Half set.

 

 

Have been playing with early Mercury Dimes.

I'm only going for 1916 to 1931. F15-XF40.

I know the feeling, I have been working on the 3cent for a while now. Still looking for the 83 and 85

My Barber dime set still missing 1895 - O

Still trying to get the courage to lay down a grand + for a "penny" albeit a 1909 S VDB NGC VF-20, still it's the only coin missing. Hey, maybe a replica would should try out the spot as i muster the guts (wife approval) to make this investment.

If it weren't for "Key Dates" this would be a breeze!

I've thought about filling that same hole with a replica. I would never be able to afford a real one.

I bought a replica for the 1909-S VBD and the 1914-D. Man they look good in MS condition!!

Talked me into it! I'll just tell people that the "real NGC MS 67 Red 1909 S VDB" is in my safe! :think:

I just couldn't put a couple hundred or thousand dollar coin into my album. I will own a graded one some day but this will do for now. Plus the set only cost me $6 on eBay!!

[Old Pueblo]

I hope to own a graded one maybe next year though. We have the fall Tucson coin expo here in October, Maybe I can find the Barber dime and the VDB. I am saving money just for the event.
